Seth Lugo eager to stick in the Padres' rotation, Jay Groome wild in likely his last start this spring and updates on Austin Nola and Juan Soto
Seth Lugo turned 33 years old in November. He’d signed for $20,000 as the Mets’ 34th-round pick all the way back in 2011, so he’d certainly had to work an odd job or two before he was sure baseball was a career.
The Padres weren’t the only team courting Lugo as a starting pitcher this winter, but the plan they discussed was as intriguing as the fallback option laid out two-year, $15 million deal that included incentives as to both start and relieve games, as the uber-valuable/versatile Nick Martinez received before the start of 2022 and this year.
So he pushed even more. Then his elbow gave out. It was the last time he’d had a chance to ramp up for a rotation spot from the beginning to the end of spring training.
